In the temple complex, there are corpses everywhere.
There are guards, entourages, and a few who know the dangers of the restricted area. The corpses of the young people who stay on the books, they retain the horror of their lives, and stare at the sky.
In addition, there are dead jellyfish.
Different from the human race, the jellyfish will turn into a mass of gray mud after death, filled with bursts of stench, completely different from the gorgeous and colorful life.
At the same time, it also exudes an extremely rich heterogeneity, invading the surroundings and eroding everything.
And this sudden disaster is still going on.
As the boys and girls hurriedly retreated, the jellyfish group roared and pursued, and on the periphery of the restricted area of the jungle, killing and death were still being staged.
When Xu Qing came to the temple complex, it was already an hour later.
Walking in the temple complex, Xu Qing looked at the corpses everywhere, but his expression did not change much.
Corpses, he saw too many.
Passing by the corpses of guards and followers everywhere, Xu Qing put away some dead jellyfish, ready to go back to study.
As for the items on these corpses, almost all of them were invaded by the rich and heterogeneous formed after the death of the jellyfish, and they were no longer available.
Until Xu Qing came to a corpse, his footsteps stopped.
This is the corpse of an old man. There is a big hole in the chest. The blood that has flowed out has dried up. In the open dark eyes, there seems to be the regret of the life.
Looking at the corpse, Xu Qing sighed softly.
He is not a god, so even if the other party buys his own insurance, it is impossible for him to completely guarantee their safety, especially when the fog does not appear.
After being silent, Xu Qing squatted down, covered Old Stone's open eyes, and buried him again.
There is no monument, because the Lei team said that most of the scavengers had no relatives before they died, and they did not need to go to pay homage.
Dust to dust, dust to dust.
This is the life of a scavenger, struggling in the world before death, and after death... just be quiet.
This kind of sadness is actually the destination of the vast majority of scavengers.
Standing in front of the grave of the old stone, Xu Qing looked towards the direction of the camp outside the restricted area in the distance, recalling the past few months of life.
It has been four months since he came to this scavenger camp.
Captain Blood Shadow is dead, Fire Crow is dead, Fat Mountain Horse Si is dead, Barbarian is dead, Old Stone is dead, Thunder Team retreats, Bone Knife escapes, and many more scavengers also died silently.
In a cruel and troubled world, human life is like a mustard.
"Only when you become stronger can you survive." Xu Qing murmured, his expression slowly indifferent, and turned to leave.
At this moment, in the afterglow of the setting sun, there is a wind blowing, blowing the clothes of the distant young man.
This voice also seemed to have some coldness, gradually weakening, until it disappeared into the jungle along with its figure.
The afterglow fell, and the light was gradually weakening, but it still tried to penetrate the dense leaves, trying to reflect the sparse light on the young man running in the jungle.
But the youth's speed was too fast, and light seemed a little powerless to catch up.
Not long after, Xu Qing's footsteps suddenly stopped, and after he stopped, he looked down at the ground with doubts in his eyes.
Soon, Xu Qing squatted down and sniffed carefully, and finally his eyes landed on a blade of grass, which had a hard-to-detect powder on it.
If it wasn't for Xu Qing's more solid grasp of poisonous weeds and his understanding of the smell of this restricted area, it would be difficult to detect the abnormality.
It took him a long time to discern at this moment before he picked up the leaf that was covered with a layer of powder, concentrated for a moment and then muttered.
"The exact ingredients are unknown, but there must be centipede blood in it!"
Xu Qing's eyes flashed brightly. In Master Bai's course, there was an introduction to the centipede blood.
This kind of blood has certain medicinal properties, but it is more of a catalyst, so it can be formulated with other medicines to attract specific beasts, which is often needed when hunting.
"The arrival of those jellyfish has something to do with this?" Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, put down the leaf with a fatal crisis, and took out a packet of poisonous powder and sprinkled it on his body.
After using this to dispel the blood of the centipede that he had just contaminated, he shook his body and moved in a different direction.
Xu Qing did not intend to go to the place where the young and young girls brought by Old Stone were evacuated. This matter had nothing to do with him and was unwilling to participate in it.
Even if there are friends of Chen Feiyuan among these people, he is not obliged to help, and these people are surrounded by strong men who can fight the giant jellyfish, which is equally dangerous to Xu Qing.
The most important thing is that among these young men and women, there is a high probability that someone will deliberately attract jellyfish, and the purpose is unknown.
So after noticing their position, Xu Qing changed direction, circled around, and returned to the pharmacy in the canyon when it was getting dark.
After putting away the picked herbs, he continued to study Baidan.
It's just that although Xu Qing didn't go to the retreat of the young men and women, when the middle of the night came, Xu Qing, who was preparing herbal medicine in the pharmacy, still heard the sound of roaring and fighting in the distance, and it was getting closer, which made him frown. rise.
After the footsteps also came, Xu Qing secretly sighed.
He stood up, walked out of the pharmacy, and saw the direction of the entrance to the canyon by the moonlight, where there was a sound of surprise.
"There is a way here!!"
"Everyone, come in."
Along with the voices, there were a few shabby and embarrassed teenagers.
They had panic on their faces, and there were more than a dozen people behind them, mostly their companions of the same age, as well as seven or eight wounded guards.
After a total of more than 20 people ran into the canyon one after another, while the guards were desperately guarding the entrance, these young men and women who survived the disaster also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time noticed the environment in the canyon.
They quickly saw Xu Qing's pharmacy and Xu Qing standing there.
"Someone!"
The moment they saw Xu Qing, these young men and women were like frightened birds, they immediately retreated in exclamation, and three guards came quickly behind them, looking at Xu Qing with vigilance and murderous intent.
This murderous intention made Xu Qing's eyes a little cold. After he swept the guards coldly, he looked at the group of young men and women. There were two of them, so he paid attention.
One of them was a little older than him, about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although he was in a state of embarrassment, unlike others, his face showed little panic, but mostly vigilance.
The other was a young girl with a very sweet appearance. Although her clothes were dirty and frightened, Xu Qing, who was accustomed to seeing all kinds of things in life, could see at a glance that this person's fright was very false.
Especially... The woman's right hand is wearing a glove, which seems to be for cleanliness, but for Xu Qing, who uses poison, the glove has many functions.
For example, sprinkle powder.
"Eight guards, the cultivation base is between six and seven, and the others are below the fifth floor, and they are divided into three small teams."
"Only those two people, the men's cultivation base is seventh-level, and the women... should be the ones who lure the jellyfish. As for the few strong men who fought against the giant jellyfish, they are not among them, and the probability is to lead the giant jellyfish away. ."
This is Xu Qing's habit, and those young men and women could never imagine that Xu Qing could see so many details just by scanning it.
But these guards were obviously different from those young men and women. They felt the coldness in Xu Qing's eyes, and they looked at the eye pharmacy again, and they were all vigilant.
Being able to find such a canyon in the restricted area, and building a house in the canyon, all means that this young man is not only familiar with the restricted area, but also lives here.
Such people are extremely dangerous.
"Fellow Daoist, is your lord here? We have no ill intentions, we are just chasing by alien beasts, so we take this place to escape."
"As soon as the sun rises, we will leave. Please forgive me for disturbing you."
The instinctive words of these guards were polite.
Their words also made the frightened young men and women behind them feel that something was wrong, and they all looked at Xu Qing.
Among them, the eldest boy looked at Xu Qing a few more times with a solemn expression, while the girl with gloves narrowed her eyes.
She swept the pharmacy and smelled the herbal scent around her, so she had a sense of the young man in front of her.
Xu Qing frowned, looked at them, and then looked at the entrance. After a while, he didn't speak, acquiesced in their existence, and turned to the pharmacy.
His acquiescence made those guards heave a sigh of relief, while the young men and women behind them were mostly apprehensive.
Only the girl with gloves, after a strange light flashed in her eyes, spoke in a low voice with a cautious and aggrieved voice.
"You... You are so rude. We just want to hide here. There are alien beasts outside. We will die when we go out."
Her voice carried a feeling of love and pity, which made the surrounding teenagers who admired her also mustered up their courage and opened their mouths to Xu Qing one after another.
"Yeah, why are you so cold-blooded."
"We're not malicious, just take a break here."
"The restricted area is not his home, why should we ask him!"
A simple sentence caused some people's hostility to Xu Qing. Although this hostility was not much, it still made the girl a little proud.
She wanted to use others to test the bottom of the young man in front of her.
But in the next moment, a flash of cold light suddenly flashed from Xu Qing, and a whistling sound came out, and a dagger seemed to be approaching the proud girl in a flash of lightning.
When she was about to dodge, the dagger flew past her ear, cutting off some of her hair, and with a bang, it stabbed deeply into the stone wall behind her, shooting out some sparks.
The girl was shocked, her right hand instinctively raised her breath, and when she looked at Xu Qing, what she saw was the young man in front of her, with a wolf-like indifference and killing intent.
This look made her heart tremble, and the guards and other young men and women around were startled.
"We meet by chance, don't come and test me." Xu Qing gave the girl a deep look, suppressed the murderous intention in her heart, opened her mouth slowly, turned around and walked towards the pharmacy.
Under the moonlight, his figure seemed to merge with the moonlight, revealing the coldness of the night, flowing in the minds of everyone in the canyon, making them slowly silent.
In the feelings of many people, the canyon seems to be as dangerous as the jellyfish group outside.
In this silence, the moment Xu Qing walked to the door of the pharmacy, a shrill scream came from the entrance.
A small jellyfish found the entrance, penetrated the body of a guard, swallowed his internal organs, and rushed into the canyon.
Behind him, a group of jellyfish roared.
